Thanks Maxim_k!

However, I resolved the issue by using the .cfg file from autocad 2014 and placed it in the frameworks folder in Autocad 2016. Renaming the file to 2016 initialised to load the autocad , thus the problem was resolved.

BTW, I just checked now - there is no acad2016.cfg file inside Frameworks folder (inside AutoCAD 2016 app folder) and AutoCAD works without any issues on my Mac.
